VPR Presents Lilly Ledbetter

10/17/09 9:00AM

When Lilly Ledbetter learned her male coworkers were paid more for
doing equal work, she filed a complaint and began a wage discrimination
debate that landed in the Supreme Court. Now an advocate for pay
equity, Ledbetter became the inspiration for the first bill President
Obama signed into law. Ledbetter appeared at Vermont Technical College
with Senator Patrick Leahy on Saturday, October 17th.
